Okay, based on your explanation of TUNSETQUEUE, the steps below are what I believe we need to do ... if you disagree speak up quickly please. A. TUNSETIFF (new, non-persistent device) [Allocate and initialize the tun_struct LSM state based on the calling process, use this state to label the TUN socket.] 1. Call security_tun_dev_create() which authorizes the action. 2. Call security_tun_dev_alloc_security() which allocates the tun_struct LSM blob and SELinux sets some internal blob state to record the label of the calling process. 3. Call security_tun_dev_attach() which sets the label of the TUN socket to match the label stored in the tun_struct LSM blob during A2. No authorization is done at this point since the socket is new/unlabeled. B. TUNSETIFF (existing, persistent device) [Relabel the existing tun_struct LSM state based on the calling process, use this state to label the TUN socket.] 1. Attempt to relabel/reset the tun_struct LSM blob from the currently stored value, set during A2, to the label of the current calling process. *** THIS IS NOT CURRENTLY DONE IN THE RFC PATCH *** 2. Call security_tun_dev_attach() which sets the label of the TUN socket to match the label stored in the tun_struct LSM blob during B1. No authorization is done at this point since the socket is new/unlabeled. C. TUNSETQUEUE [Use the existing tun_struct LSM state to label the new TUN socket.] 1. Call security_tun_dev_attach() which sets the label of the TUN socket to match the label stored in the tun_struct LSM blob set during either A2 or B1. No authorization is done at this point since the socket is new/unlabeled.Here's what bothers me. libvirt currently opens tun and passes fd to qemu. What would prevent qemu from attaching fd using TUNSETQUEUE to another device it does not own?True, assuming all the above is correct and that I'm understanding it correctly (Jason?), we should probably add a new SELinux access control for TUNSETQUEUE.Yes, we need make sure qemu can call TUNSETQUEUE for the device it does not own.
Meaning can *not* call?
